beelikejI really, really, really, really, really, REALLY wish I had someone to watch 'Say Yes To The Dress' with. Obviously I watch it because it's excellent bitch tv. For those of you who never heard of it: it's a real life televisionshow about brides to be who go shopping at Kleinfeld in New York ("The largest selection of weddingdresses in the world").
I don't believe in marriage and find weddings a waste of money, so I'm already judging anyone who walks into a bridalshop. But that's only the start...
Never mind that these people are willing to spend over 1500 dollars on a dress they are only gonna wear once (I'm sure I buy things that they wouldn't understand). That's the bottom price of dresses at Kleinfelds, by the way. Average spending on the show is about 3000 - 5000 dollars and sometimes twice that amount.
What bothers me is that they often don't HAVE that much money to spend. I assume they get a loan or put it on credit? Either way they don't know the meaning of the word budget. (Neither do the shop-assistents, oh pardon, the 'consultants') Plus a lot of these women don't even pay for their own dress and have mommy and daddy or their fiancé pay the bill. What the fuck. It just boggles my mind.
Don't even make me start about the dresses. I hate this program and the channel it's on so much, but I just can't stop watching. Every workday there is a double feature from 8-9 p.m. and it has me glued to my couch. Yelling at my tv.
It's awesome. Anyone want to come over and watch with me? Pretty please?
This was my last spam-post for today. I plan to finally write a decent one tomorrow, about my massage and the progress of the Cleaning House project. I also hope to have time for a rant-post, titled: "Dear artists of BigBang and other fanart-challenges, stop listing Google Image Search as a source for your material. It's a fucking search-engine, not the owner of any photos."
